Hey! I had to create an account just to thank you for your time. I really appreciate your builds because I struggle so much with making my own builds viable. I get stuck too much on theme with my limited understanding of how the powers work and don't end up contributing the best to team-ups.

One theme I really liked working with was a brain in a jar. I happened upon a "NOT Cyclops" build and it fit so well with the character. It's just that it has been almost a year since I last played I forgot how to use the character, I was also almost to level 40.

May I please bother you to recreate something similar if at all possible?

Hi! I made an account just to thank you for updating this stuff in CURRENT YEAR aaand to ask...

I was wondering if you could explain a bit about how, exactly, you make these freeform builds work and how someone might find space to hybridize these builds - how you might effectively blend close and far attacks if it's possible, the many MANY different Munitions and options, etc.

There are so many damage types and statuses, and it's so hard to find one up-to-date place to view them all, see their sources, see stat dependencies and synergies between abilities from different power sets, etc.
